Hottest Record: Joker - Here Come The Lights

Zane Lowe | 20:08 UK time, Wednesday, 27 July 2011

From Bristol comes Joker. Which in part explains why tonight's hottest record is a new level for UK bass.

Bristol has given us all some of the finest electronic music in recorded history, so it was just a matter of time before the city gave us some new pioneers for this modern era.

laura-marling

Currently on the 'Highlands Tour' Laura Marling took time out to help us introduce her brand new album with tonight's Hottest Record 'Sophia'. She calls this one of the easier listens on the record, but even with that description i would challenge anybody to step up to her mark. Exceptional stuff.

Hottest Record - Snow Patrol - Called Out In The Dark

Zane Lowe | 19:23 UK time, Thursday, 21 July 2011

They promised an evolution in sound and unlike many bands Snow Patrol have made good on tonight's Hottest Record, 'Called Out In The Dark'. Appropriate signs of electronica don't detract from the essence of Snow Patrol: big tunes. Gary also told us the new album will be called 'Fallen Empires'. Spread the word.

Zane Lowe | 20:47 UK time, Monday, 18 July 2011

Red Hot Chili Peppers

So the Red Hot Chilli Peppers new single 'The Adventures of Rain Dance Maggie' leaked over the weekend but true to his word band member Flea gave us a lot of time and a lot of information on tonight's show. We know that the new album is full of many different moods, each one unique and that they will tour the world comprehensively. From there when we know, you'll know.

Hottest Record - The Kooks - Is It Me?

Zane Lowe | 19:10 UK time, Thursday, 14 July 2011

One of the more traditional Kooks-sounding records off their new record according to Luke, however he also pointed out that the new album will sound vastly different to anything the band have done before. A solid hottest record in any case.

Hottest Record - DJ Shadow (feat. Afrikan Boy) - I'm Excited

Zane Lowe | 19:57 UK time, Thursday, 7 July 2011

DJ Shadow

Tonight's Hottest Record came late in the creation of DJ Shadow's latest album. And it sounds like it... it sounds like a release of energy amidst the strain of finishing something as important as a full-length record. It's jump-up, it's fun, and it's got DJ Shadow all over it. And Afrikan Boy. I'm excited.

Hottest Record - Ed Sheeran - You Need Me

Zane Lowe | 19:30 UK time, Wednesday, 6 July 2011

Ed Sheeran

Not much you can really say about Ed Sheeran right now that his music isn't saying for him. Come September ambitions will be fulfilled as his debut album hits the shelf. But for now another classic anthem in 'You Need Me'.

Spurred on by the unexpected main stream support for "Blessed With A Curse", Bring Me The Horizon tee-up a stand-out song from their brilliant new album. And we dutifully make it Hottest Record. This is heavy rock delievered with everything they got and there's no doubt that BMTH are new leaders in their field.

Hottest Record: Example - Stay Awake

Zane Lowe | 19:35 UK time, Monday, 4 July 2011

example

Example will remember this summer for the rest of his life. As he readys his new album 'Playing In The Shadows' for release, it has become apparent to all that he is on the verge of becoming one of the UK's biggest popstars. The fact that he is this with credibility still intact is a major bonus for us. No need to let him go entirely to the big leagues just yet.
